Is there a standerd video card that is supported for the R2200?  I a
thinking about just getting supported video card and just to it work.

p.s. last two days been snow in here in seattle, I play around with that
floppy boot on my r2200, well, I got no luck, it keep complain of driver
load error.

here is a trick I am thinking about doing.  Please let me know if this
make sense.

1.  take the empty FAT formated scsi drive from the r2200
2.  please it in a win95 system
3.  copy all the netbsd files onto the FAT formated drive.
4.  put the harddrive back in the r2200
5.  From the arc firmware and try to boot directly.

Could this work?

thanks in advance
